A newspaper hawker gets 7% commission on all sales up to Rs. 8,000 and 5% commission on all sales exceeding Rs. 8,000.

We have to find the total sales made by him if the sale amount after deducting his commission is 30,000.

This question can be solved easily if you are good in percentage concept. Let's solve the question step by step.

If we assume, hawker gets only 5% comission upto 8000 Rs rather than 7%, He will lose 2 % of 8000 Rs = 160 Rs. and this amount is to be given to owner.

So newspaper hawker gives amount after deducting 5 % comission on total sale = 30,000 + 160 = 30,160 Rs.

means, 95 % of total sale = 30,160

⇒100% of total sale = 30160/95 × 100

= 31747.36 Rs.
